Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

The car park is well off the road.

When looking at the evidence on the verges around the car park, which are just within slinging distance of an average open rear vehicle window, I have often thought how it might well be an 'unofficial' dogging area.

On Google Maps look up "Ironstone Railway Trust, Northampton" and you will see the car park for this, which is 'J'-shaped.

The Cafe/Toilet thingy building is just off the bottom of the 'J' at the 7 o'clock position and set just in and hidden a bit in the trees.

You enter the Danes Camp area also at the bottom of the 'J' but at the '5:30' clock position. As you look to the RHS of the car park on the map you can see the Danes Camp and all the trails. I trust you can get an idea how absoutely brilliant it is for walking dogs....

....and what a rubbishingly bad site for any kind of a cafe!

More lies from Labour.

He says his understanding is that MI6 obtained authorisation from the Labour government of the time for its action.

Jack Straw was the Labour Foreign Secretary in 2004 when the rendition took place. In an interview on BBC Radio 4 last year he said: "We were opposed to unlawful rendition. We were opposed to any use of torture or similar methods. Not only did we not agree with it, we were not complicit in it and nor did we turn a blind eye to it."

He added: "No foreign secretary can know all the details of what its intelligence agencies are doing at any one time."

His office told the BBC Mr Straw had nothing further to add in the light of the current allegations.

i'll now surprise you all .....
have just been listening to how Eastcoast Rail is running very well, as confirmed by the passengers, and profitably - all since it was returned to public ownership
it is therefore pretty appalling that the gov't now wants to re-privatise it when the the last bunch (or was it 2) made such a mess of it

as they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it

==========

that IS NOT to say that when the whole rail operation was originally in public ownership it was run well and efficiently, for it most assuredly was not
it was dire, inefficient, dirty and losing money hand over fist and forever fighting off strikes by Bob Crowe's predecessor and his merry men

I would prefer it to be in private ownership even if it was not much of an improvement. I am opposed to the government running any commercial enterprises. Without the profit motive businesses do not innovate.

It's not about Private or Public you right wing idiots, it's about competent or useless/corrupt and or cronified management... And no guesses which we keep on ending up with in this Country.

Public ownership has been a disaster everywhere it has existed.

Why do the public want energy brought back into public ownership then Hays?.

Even the Labour party dumped clause IV in 1995.

There is only one major area that was nationalised in 1946 and has not been reprivatised.

Q. What is it?

The so called Civil Service.

No.

Docks?

"Even the Labour party dumped clause IV in 1995." How many more times... there hasn't been a proper Labour Party for long before 1995.

Still havent answered my question 34363

No There are private docks such as Felixstowe and Southampton container ports.

You should know by now G/F that H/S is just a right Wing Exstremist.

Hes a grand lad though, a grand lad.

Go on then I give in? no good googling as it would be cheating.

Ill use that for my quiz night at the tory club tomorrow.
